First, Arbor Day is officially written into the law! What exactly happened?

The newly revised Forest Law of the people's Republic of China will come into force on July 1, which makes it clear that it is Arbor Day on March 12 of each year. Forests are also divided into public welfare forests and commercial forests, which will be strictly protected, and commercial forests will be managed independently by forestry operators in accordance with the law.

Second, what day is Arbor Day?

Arbor Day is the 12th of March every year.

China's Arbor Day was established by Ling Daoyang, Han an, Pei Yili and other forestry scientists in 1915. The time was originally set at Ching Ming Festival every year. In 1979, after the founding of New China, at the proposal of Deng Xiaoping, the sixth meeting of the standing Committee of the Fifth National people's Congress decided to designate China's Arbor Day on March 12 of each year.

In addition, Arbor Day can also be divided into tree planting day, tree planting week or tree planting month according to the length of time, which is generally known as Arbor Day. Through festivals, we can achieve the goal of loving forest and protecting forest, expanding forest resources and improving ecological environment.

What is the significance of Arbor Day?

1. "Arbor Day" is prescribed by some countries in the form of law to publicize forest benefits and mobilize the masses to participate in afforestation activities. Afforestation can not only afforest and beautify homes, but also expand mountain and forest resources, prevent soil erosion, protect farmland, regulate climate, reduce pollution, and promote economic development.

two。 Afforestation can control desertified cultivated land, and as the economic forest has entered the mature period, it can not only produce huge economic benefits, but also provide a large number of labor and employment opportunities to promote the sustainable development of the local economy. Huge forest carbon sequestration will play an active role in protecting the global climate system and ecological environment.

After Arbor Day was formally written into the law, it is also of great help to improve people's protection and care of the environment.
